I'm not in the US but I find this highly interesting. We don't use C-band here for radio, but I have previously used it for links to African TV channels and had not considered that might be impacted in future by 5G.
Thanks for the heads-up. :-) Jonathan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sherrod Munday Sent: 24 October 2018 02:48 To: Rivendell-Dev Subject: [RDD] USA: Satellite Downlink Sites - Interactive Map (For everyone who doesn’t live here, please pardon the United States-centric nature of this post. I realize there’s a fair contingent of international folks on this listserv, but this is very relevant to broadcasters in the United States.) http://bit.ly/cbandmap Here is an interactive, zoomable map of all 13,993 C-band satellite downlink sites registered as of 10/22/2018 with the Federal Communications Commission. If you haven’t registered your sites yet with the FCC, you have until October 31, 2018 to do so if you want to have any protection against future interference from 5G. See http://bit.ly/2JyLnhU for instructions how. And in case you haven’t heard, the C-Band Alliance (“CBA”) has now upped their ante to 200 MHz of bandwidth they think they can clear out of the C-band 4 GHz spectrum. See http://bit.ly/2PhUNFs for an article about the updated offer. -- Sherrod Munday <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
